Grave danger / by Grippando, James,1958-author.;
After fleeing from Iran to Miami with her daughter, Jack Swyteck's new client is accused of kidnapping by her husband. Jack not only must plan a winning defense but, to stop the father from taking the girl back to Tehran, he must build a case under international law to prove that returning the child would put her at risk. But everything in this case isn't what it seems, as Jack discovers that his client is really the child's aunt, and that the biological mother may have been killed by Iran's morality police. What role did the father play in his wife's death, and why is Jack's wife, FBI agent Andie Henning, being pressured by her bosses to persuade Jack to drop the case? Plunging into an investigation unlike any other, Jack must discover who is behind the legal maneuvering and what their interest is. As politics threaten to derail the case and compromise the best interests of the child, Jack and Andie find themselves on opposite sides--with their marriage hanging in the balance. For their relationship to survive, the couple must navigate a treacherous web of deceit that extends from a Miami courthouse to the highest echelons of Washington, DC, and spells grave danger at every turn.
